UPDATE:

In consideration of the safety and well-being of our community, staff, performers and vendors, the City of Kennesaw has made the difficult decision to postpone the Kennesaw Concert Series performance originally scheduled for Saturday, May 3. The National Weather Service is currently forecasting a 90% chance of showers and thunderstorms throughout the day and evening, along with gusty winds.

The concert, featuring Shot Thru the Heart: The Bon Jovi Experience, has been rescheduled for Friday, May 30, at the United Bankshares Amphitheater at Depot Park.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. The safety of our attendees and participants remains our top priority. Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to rocking with you on May 30!

The City of Kennesaw is thrilled to continue the 2025 Kennesaw Concert Series, presented by Wellstar Health System, with premier sponsorship from Williams Elleby Howard & Easter and hosted at the newly renamed United Bankshares Amphitheater at Depot Park.
